Abstract

This paper introduces a hardware device designed for measuring electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, integrated with a remote system for automated signal analysis, facilitating health monitoring and heart disease diagnosis by doctors. The device transmits ECG signals in real-time to a server equipped with software for analyzing and classifying ECG signals using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. Hermite basis functions are employed to generate feature vectors. The proposed solution has been validated using ECG signals from the MIT-BIH (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital) database, achieving a 5.07% error rate in classifying seven types of heart rhythms. The SVM algorithm demonstrates high speed and suitability for server-based data classification needs.
